$Mogul, don't pass out, but how about a Dow Jones EDIG writeup:

E.Digital Shares Jump 43% After Strong Showing At Electronics Show
Thursday, January 6, 2000 07:15 PM

NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Shares of E.Digital Corp. jumped 43% Thursday after the company impressed investors with a display of its portable Internet music player at the
International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Shares of E.Digital (EDIG, news, msgs) soared $2.688 to settle at $8.938 on Thursday. After languishing as a penny stock, E.Digital shares had been rising in anticipation of its appearance at the ICES. But its shares showed they have legs when the company finally hit the stage Thursday, gaining 44% at one point to hit a new 52-week high.

In Las Vegas, E.Digital unveiled its portable Internet music player, which uses International Business Machines Corp.'s (IBM, news, msgs) 340-megabyte Microdrive component. The device, which can hold up to five and a half hours of compressed music downloaded from the Internet or CDs, will be displayed in the IBM Technology Suite until
Saturday.

"People knew that this show would be big for us," said E.Digital Senior Vice President Robert Putnam, reached by phone in Las Vegas. "When you're a small company that's
just emerging, association with global leaders like IBM is important."

E.Digital specializes in development of portable digital audio, image and data recording devices that connect to the Internet and local networks. It licenses or custom designs products for original equipment manufacturers.

The company's chief executive, Alfred H. Falk, said potential new customers have already shown interest in the portable music device being shown in IBM's area in Las
Vegas.

E.Digital built the buzz for maximum Vegas impact with several announcements Thursday and Wednesday. The company said it's in a pact with RioPort Inc., an S3 Inc. (SIII, news, msgs) and MTV Networks venture, to integrate RioPort's secure digital audio platform with E.Digital's
Internet music player design.

Meanwhile, Liquid Audio Inc. (LQID, news, msgs) announced Thursday that E.Digital is one of 12 consumer electronics companies it's working with to deliver portable music
devices that playback Liquid Audio's music.

On Wednesday, E.Digital said it licensed its player design to Maycom Co. Ltd., maker of the I-Jam digital MP3 player.

"There's just a lot going on with our company now," said E.Digital's Chief Executive Alfred H. Falk. "People are starting to recognize the technology we're involved with is
going to change the way we listen to music."

Falk said many people were alerted to the potential of digital music devices when Microsoft's Bill Gates said on Larry King Live recently that Internet music will displace
CDs in the next five years.

He also said technologies like E.Digital's, which promise to protect the intellectual property of music companies and other content providers, will form the second generation of handheld devices and displace free MP3 players.

Secure devices is "where the money is going to be made," Falk said.
